简要总结
Obesity is a chronic disease resulting from an excess of body fat mass relative to lean body mass, characterized by a deterioration in the individual's quality of life and health (Kayar and Utku, 2013; Usta and Çavdar, 2013; Tam and Çakır, 2012; Tuncalı et al., 2018). Bariatric surgery is becoming increasingly common worldwide. Nausea and vomiting are among the most frequently observed complications in these patients. This study will be conducted to assess patients for the risk of nausea and vomiting and to examine the effects of a cold application nursing intervention. The lack of sufficient literature measuring nausea and vomiting in patients following bariatric surgery prompted us to undertake this study.
详细描述
The analysis of the patients' pre- and post-operative scale scores in this study is expected to reveal an improvement in quality of life, consistent with the findings of similar studies. It is anticipated that the patients' quality of life will increase as they achieve their desired weight and body image, gain mobility, and become more independent in their daily lives. Quality of life is defined as the level of satisfaction shaped by an individual's abilities and lifestyle. Obesity frequently impacts quality of life negatively by affecting the individual psychosocially-particularly through dissatisfaction with their physical appearance.

研究组 & 干预措施
Experimental group subjected to ice application
Upon the individual's arrival at the unit, the status of nausea (including severity) and vomiting was assessed, and physiological parameters were measured. A cold compress wrapped in gauze was applied to the patient's upper neck area and left in place for five minutes. Following the procedure, the status of nausea (including severity), vomiting, and physiological parameters was re-evaluated. The use of antiemetic and opioid medications was also recorded.
干预措施: ICE (Other)
CONTROL
When the individual arrived at the unit, their nausea status (including severity) and vomiting status were assessed, and physiological parameters were measured prior to the intervention. No cold application was performed. Following the procedure, nausea status (including severity), vomiting status, and physiological parameters were reassessed. The use of antiemetic and opioid medications was also recorded.
结局指标
主要结局
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
时间窗: 15 months
The VAS is a scale ranging from 0 ("no nausea") to 10 ("very severe nausea"), with numerical values assigned at one-centimeter intervals. The following were rated: nausea severity, peak nausea severity, nausea severity during activity, nausea severity at rest, retching/vomiting severity, and peak retching/vomiting severity.
次要结局
